Sean O’Malley suggests UFC segregation ahead of August return: ‘Would they be able to sell pay per views?’

Ahead of his return to the Octagon at UFC 292 in August, bantamweight contender and incoming title challenger, Sean O’Malley has questioned if the promotion were to segregate its male and female competitors – could the latter sufficiently sell enough pay-per-views, comparing a potential split to the NBA and WNBA.

O’Malley, the current number two ranked bantamweight contender under the banner of the organization, is slated to return to the Octagon on August 19. at the TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts, taking on defending bantamweight champion, Aljamain Sterling in his first title charge under the promotion’s banner.
